## What “the Kongregate King” is
**The Kongregate King** is a Kongregate competition hosted by [me](http://www.kongregate.com/accounts/JaumeBG) and with help from [Jacob](http://www.kongregate.com/accounts/jacobmatto), [Payton](http://www.kongregate.com/accounts/Payton_Hayes), [Selly](http://www.kongregate.com/accounts/sellyme), [Wii](http://www.kongregate.com/accounts/WiiPlayer113) and [VG](http://www.kongregate.com/accounts/videogames518).
[Kongregate competitions](http://www.kongregate.com/forums/1-kongregate/topics/67662-kongregate-competition-sign-ups-directory) are tournaments in which players wanting to participate post a screenshot of a score of the game (in the Qualifier round it’ll be any score higher than the score shown will get to the next round, in the other rounds, if your score is too low, you cannot get to the following round).
In each round, if you’d like to get to the next one, you’ll have to post a good enough score. You can know if your score is bad or good by checking if you’re in the “Red Zone” (which are the players whose names are highlighted in red in the spredsheet as they can’t get through to the next round), you can see if you are in it, by checking out the [spreadsheet](http://bit.ly/TheKongregateKing).
No hacking is allowed. Don’t fool us, we’ll know if you have hacked the game or edited the screenshot. If you spot someone with a modified score, do not say it publicly, [whisper me](http://www.kongregate.com/accounts/JaumeBG/private_messages?focus=true) and we’ll look in to it.
Screenshots must have your green plug on the top right of the chat proving you’re signed in and the highscores tab under the Today tab, so that we can see the screenshot is from today. In the screenshot, we must see your scores tab with your score and your score in the game must be matching.
At the end of the tournament, the winner will be unofficially claimed as “the Kongregate King”.

## Spreadsheet
We made a spreadsheet in which we’ll update the current score, link to the games and show who has qualified for the next round. To see the spreadsheet, simply go to [http://bit.ly/TheKongregateKing](http://bit.ly/TheKongregateKing).

## How to take a screenshot
If you’d like to participate, you must take a screenshot of your score in the game and then post it in this thread. If you’d like to know how to take a screenshot, [click here](http://www.kongregate.com/forums/1/topics/64167?page=2#posts-1446249).

The competition guideline will be written by Jaume very soon.

It’s a competition. Basically, to enter, get a score of _x_ (likely about 100) in the game Particles. Jaume just accidentally created the topic before he had the text though.

Minor nitpick.
> No hacking is allowed. Don’t fool us, we’ll know if you have hacked the game or **editted** the screenshot.
It’s edited, not editted. Anyway, yes, we have magic powahz to detect hacks.

You may as well post it now, be FIRST!
Also, Jaume, maybe you should add a link to that image capturing tool.

Managed to do a lot better now that the lag is gone. This isn’t my personal best, but it’s been quite a while since I got this high. My personal best is 255 seconds.
